Ask HN: Etherpad like whiteboard?

Ah! One of my favorite topics!

Inkboard was a fork of inkscape that was an experimental collaborative whiteboard. It uses XMPP, and some pieces of it were merged into Inkscape proper well after the fact.

Coccinella is a perl/tk IM client that uses XMPP to do whiteboarding.

I haven't used Vyew in a while, but found it useful. Seems to fit your criteria for free, web-based, and real-time.

Check out dabbleboard.com Zohair, the founder, is a regular here and is making an awesome product.

Is the use case actual drawings/diagrams here? We use EtherPad for any and all traditional text white-boarding.

Thanks for all the responses!
